Quantification of Caspase-1 in Liver Tissue

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Liver tissues were homogenized in chilled lysis buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), followed by incubation for 20 minutes on ice. After centrifugation at 12000 g for 10 minutes at 4°C, the supernatants were collected as protein samples. Protein content was determined using the Pierce™ BCA Protein Assay kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). Approximately 40 μg of protein was loaded into a 12% bis-tris polyacrylamide gel (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) for separation. Afterward, the proteins were transferred to a polyvinyl difluoride membrane. After blocking, the membranes were blotted with primary antibodies against caspase-1 (Abcam, San Francisco, CA, USA), which was followed by blotting with a secondary antibody in a standard fashion. The membranes were developed using enhanced chemical luminescence (Biological Industries, Kibbutz Beit-Haemek, Israel) and exposed to X-ray films. β-Actin served as a protein loading control.

Western Blot Analysis of SphK1 and SphK2

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Samples were lysed in RIPA buffer (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA) and 15 μg of total lysate was resolved with 12% SDS-PAGE. Proteins were then transferred to PDVF membranes (Millipore, Billerica, MA). Membranes was blocked with 5% fat-free milk/PBS and blotted with antibodies against SphK1, Sphk2, or β-actin (Cell Signaling, Boston, MA). Membranes were subsequently washed and incubated in HRP-conjugated second antibodies (Millipore, Billerica, MA), washed, and detected with enhanced chemical luminescence (Biological Industries, Kibbutz Beit-Haemek, Israel) and exposed to X-ray films. The resulting protein bands were analyzed with Image J software.

Alveolar Macrophage Ferroportin Expression

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Alveolar macrophages were isolated as described above. Then, the samples were lysed in RIPA buffer (Beyotime Biotechnology, Shanghai, China), and 30 μg of total lysate was resolved with 12% SDS-PAGE. The proteins were then transferred onto polyvinylidene fluoride membranes (Millipore, Billerica, Mass). The membrane was blocked with 5% non-fat milk and blotted with anti-mouse ferroportin antibody (Alpha Diagnostic Intl, San Antonio, Tex), followed by HRP-conjugated secondary antibody (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, West Grove, Pa). The membranes were developed using enhanced chemical luminescence (Biological Industries, Kibbutz Beit-Haemek, Israel) and exposed to X-ray films. β-actin served as a protein loading control.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
